Improvements

  • Linux: x64 shared libraries are now built with GCC 11.2 (up from GCC 7.5)
    • The minimum GLIBC version is now 2.17. (down from 2.27) (#842)
  • Windows: Shared libraries are now built with Visual Studio 2022 (up from 2019)
  • Core: Added support for JDK 19 (#799)
  • Core: Added MemoryUtil::memByteBuffer(Struct). It creates a ByteBuffer view of a struct value.
  • Core: More SharedLibraryLoader improvements. (#790)
    • The default Configuration.SHARED_LIBRARY_EXTRACT_DIRECTORY is now lwjgl_<trimmed_user_name>.
    • The default Configuration.SHARED_LIBRARY_EXTRACT_PATH now includes the CPU architecture. (<temp_root>/<extract_dir>/<version>/<arch>/)
    • Added Configuration.SHARED_LIBRARY_EXTRACT_FORCE.
  • Core: The string returned by Version::getVersion() now follows the Java version format (M.m.r+B or M.m.r-snapshot+B).
  • Core: Added Configuration.DEBUG_MEMORY_ALLOCATOR_FAST, a dynamic option that dramatically reduces the performance overhead of memory leak detection.
  • Core: Reduced the performance overhead of Configuration.DEBUG_STACK.
  • docs: The LWJGL javadoc is now generated with JDK 19 (up from JDK 10) for improved search functionality.
  • The .sha1 and .git files, used for validating LWJGL artifacts, are now stored under the META-INF folder.
  • glfw: It will now always be patched with the latest SDL_GameControllerDB version.
    • Reminder: glfwUpdateGamepadMappings can be used to update the mappings at runtime.
  • Nuklear: NK_BUTTON_TRIGGER_ON_RELEASE is now also defined on Linux & macOS, not only Windows, for consistency.
  • OpenXR: Added extension class javadoc.
    • Currently, only the overview section is included.
    • Also added a link that opens the OpenXR specification at the corresponding section for the extension.
  • Remotery: Made it easier to get started with Remotery profiling: (#784)
    • Users can now identify the commit used to build the Remotery bindings in the Remotery class javadoc.
    • A script that quickly clones the Remotery repository at that commit is also included.
      The viewer application at vis/index.html is guaranteed to be compatible with the LWJGL bindings.
    • Ported two simple Remotery samples (modules/samples/src/test/java/org/lwjgl/demo/util/remotery/).

Fixes

  • Core: Fixed Java/native library incompatibility detection. (#737)
  • Core: Fixed dlerror decoding to use UTF-8. (#738)
  • Core: Fixed Version::getVersion() when LWJGL is in the module path. (#770)
  • Core: Fixed handling of unsigned 8/16-bit integer parameters in JNI code. (#858)
  • Core: Many debug messages can no longer tear under concurrency. (#825)
  • Build: Fixed offline mode with multiple local architectures. (#740)
  • NanoSVG: Fixed auto-sizing of NSVGPath::pts buffer.
  • OpenCL: Fixed initialization on macOS 13. (#861)
  • Opus: Fixed pcm parameter type of opus_decode_float function. (#785)
  • Remotery: Fixed rmtSettings::free callback signature.
  • stb: Fixed stb_image_resize flag values. (#857)
  • Vulkan: Fixed definition of the VK_API_VERSION_PATCH macro. (#743)
  • Vulkan: Fixed EXT_debug_utils function dispatch. (#755)

Breaking Changes

  • Core: Introduced additional mangling of org.lwjgl.system.JNI method names for 8/16-bit integer parameters. (#858) (S)
  • NanoVG: The freeData parameters of nvgCreateFontMem* functions are now mapped to Java boolean. (S)
  • NativeFileDialog: Now uses the btzy/nativefiledialog-extended API. (S)
  • Nuklear: Renamed NkConvertConfig::null_texture to tex_null to match the change in the native API. (S)
(B): binary incompatible change
(S): source incompatible change
